paul_n in_o eph._n 1._o 1.18_o in_o all_o the_o former_a part_n of_o the_o chapter_n to_o the_o 18._o verse_n have_v declare_v the_o great_a mystery_n of_o salvation_n he_o take_v himself_o upon_o the_o sudden_a and_o begin_v to_o think_v with_o himself_o though_o i_o show_v you_o all_o this_o it_o be_v to_o no_o purpose_n if_o god_n send_v not_o the_o spirit_n of_o revelation_n etc._n etc._n therefore_o he_o lift_v up_o his_o heart_n to_o god_n beseech_v he_o to_o give_v they_o the_o spirit_n of_o revelation_n to_o open_v the_o eye_n of_o their_o understanding_n that_o they_o may_v see_v the_o hope_n of_o their_o call_v and_o the_o riches_n of_o their_o inheritance_n with_o the_o saint_n so_o shall_v minister_n learn_v to_o do_v to_o pray_v for_o the_o people_n that_o god_n will_v infuse_v and_o send_v his_o spirit_n into_o their_o heart_n that_o they_o may_v be_v able_a to_o perceive_v these_o thing_n effectual_o with_o a_o right_a apprehension_n to_o see_v the_o secret_n of_o god_n in_o they_o you_o also_o shall_v go_v to_o god_n and_o beseech_v he_o to_o help_v you_o with_o his_o spirit_n that_o so_o you_o may_v be_v able_a to_o apprehend_v these_o thing_n and_o that_o they_o may_v be_v powerful_a to_o work_v the_o same_o thing_n for_o which_o we_o deliver_v they_o to_o you_o and_o so_o we_o have_v show_v you_o these_o three_o thing_n first_o what_o effectual_a faith_n be_v namely_o in_o show_v you_o why_o it_o be_v call_v effectual_a faith_n second_o wherein_o the_o efficacy_n of_o faith_n consist_v and_o three_o how_o it_o be_v wrought_v now_o last_o of_o all_o we_o be_v to_o show_v you_o the_o reason_n why_o god_n accept_v no_o faith_n but_o that_o which_o be_v effectual_a effectual_a and_o there_o be_v good_a reason_n why_o no_o faith_n shall_v be_v accept_v of_o god_n but_o that_o which_o be_v effectual_a first_o because_o otherwise_o it_o be_v not_o faith_n at_o all_o if_o it_o be_v not_o effectual_a dead_a and_o if_o it_o be_v not_o faith_n it_o be_v no_o wonder_n that_o he_o do_v not_o accept_v of_o it_o i_o say_v it_o be_v no_o more_o faith_n than_o a_o dead_a man_n be_v say_v to_o be_v a_o man_n you_o give_v the_o name_n of_o a_o

it_o but_o as_o dead_a drug_n which_o have_v no_o efficacy_n in_o they_o or_o as_o dead_a plant_n or_o dead_a wine_n which_o be_v turn_v to_o vinegar_n simile_n it_o cease_v to_o be_v wine_n it_o be_v no_o long_a wine_n but_o vinegar_n so_o it_o may_v be_v say_v of_o ineffectual_a faith_n it_o be_v not_o faith_n it_o have_v the_o name_n and_o the_o shadow_n of_o faith_n only_o and_o therefore_o god_n accept_v it_o not_o again_o 8.28_o god_n will_v save_v none_o unless_o they_o be_v reconcile_v to_o he_o and_o be_v such_o as_o love_v he_o for_o that_o condition_n be_v every_o where_o put_v in_o all_o thing_n shall_v work_v together_o for_o good_a to_o they_o that_o love_v he_o and_o he_o have_v prepare_v a_o crown_n for_o they_o that_o love_v he_o now_o if_o faith_n be_v not_o
